Weekend Blues

So this weekend will be very long I think, even though I'll have a few things to do. I wish I could say that I was excited about it, but as it is I'm not. Do you ever just want to say inside and drink tea and watch old movies. I think I am having some kind of weekend anxiety; my insomnia is going to be off the charts I am sure.

Interestingly enough I have a few mildly fun things to do, but inevitably I will end up with the weekend blues. The only cure for that is a glass of wine and maybe long phone conversation with an old friend or two. I'd try shopping, but I can't stand long weekend line at the mall, or the crowds, or the loud screaming kids...you get the picture. I don't think that makes me old (actually I'm still quite young), it's that just makes me better suited for luxury resorts, with no kids, and excellent service, rather than a family fun festival. Hmm... wish I could just have an adventure, some romantic adventure, like Jane Eyre, minus the creepy boarding school and mad family relations (kind uncles excluded).

So it will be a tad bit dull this weekend, however I will endeavor to enjoy the quite nothing-to-do-ness now before I do have kids, and I don't get a moments peace till they go off to college. To all the parents out there....I commend you!

Weekend (and said glass of wine) I'll see you soon.

Possibilities and Dreams

Possibilities: Ok I very have exciting news....I may be getting a new job! (scream) It is in an industry I hope to stay in for the rest of my life. I can't wait to find out if I've gotten the position. I aim to learn and move up quickly and grow in my skills so that one day not too long from now I might open my own establishment and bring to the world my dream for them to enjoy!

I had been quite down about things until recently this new possibility came my way.  It's sad that we sometimes have dreams and never pursue them. It's amazing when we do and the doors we thought would never be open to us, suddenly open and things start unfolding in amazing ways. Our dreams can become real. My dream can become real.

One day, again not too long from now, I'll wake up in the home I have always wanted, drive the car I have needed for a while now, and go open the doors to my own escape for others to come and enjoy. Dreamy.

Won't that be amazing? To wake up and all that you imagined has come to pass. I have a lot of hard work ahead of me, but what else is there to do? I've rested...a lot this past year due to injuries, and I have experienced what's it's like to be poor, and now there is new chapter opening up for me. I will embrace this change and endeavor to deserve all the blessings. I'm going to try to be happy.

I'm just so grateful for a positive change. Grateful for a new dream.
